AB Smart Group "is not  member of" a group not working

After having some trouble with AB over time (group members disappearing after some time syncing via MobileMe), I went through the 1700 cards one by one and deleted all the groups, and old cards, now am down to 1500, with a main Group of about 900. So simple math would say that there are 600 "not a member of" the main Group, or, #1, am I missing something there?
I'd like to have my wife go through those that are not in the Group and delete those cards she doesn't need. So I tried a Smart Group with the one parameter that the Card is not a member of the Group. The result was 64 cards, not 600.
So question #2 is what's going wrong here, am I misunderstanding or is this a flaw somehow?
Thanks!

As far as I know, Apple does not monitor these boards any more. Remind them here:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html
I just sent them a note, as I'm sure thousands others have since this seems to be a known issue, but considering they've let it slide for at least six months now, it can't hurt to have more people contact them. In the mean time, see these articles to use AppleScript to find items in/not in various groups:

    The setting for iPad cover lock/unlock is in settings > general for iPad 2.
    The iPad 2 and new iPad if both are using iOS 5.x or later the setting exist in settings > general.
    So, if you worked at an apple store I think you should have known that the setting exist.
    You are right, a hard reset (force restart) should only be used if iOS device is unresponsive or apps crashing...etc.
    But, a simple restart helps as well.

  • Smart Guides Do Not Work

    My smart guides do not work. From the time I loaded CS5 they have not worked. If you go to View > Grids & Guides > the Smart Guides are grayed out.
    Then if you go to the Control Panel > View Options, the smart Guides are not grayed out they are checked.
    I have looked around and read trying to find out whats up with these guides but have not found anything the works. I have also uninstalled InDesign and reinstalled. This stall did not work.
    If anyone has any idea of why or how to get the guides to work that would be great.
      Thanks for your help...

  • Some smart album rules not working

    At a bit of a loss here - either my upgrade to Mavericks or my upgrade of Aperture to 3.5 has caused my Smart Albums to not work with various EXIF checking rules.
    I frequently have rules which check the EXIF tag, Camera Make, and check if it is Canon - this allows me to filter out and focus on my Canon 5D3 photos and not get distracted in relatively pointless editing of iPhone snaps. Unfortunately it doesn't work. Camera Make is Canon returns no matches, Camera Make starts with Canon returns nothing, Camera Make ends with Canon returns nothing.
    If I go and look at a photo, I can see the Camera Make exif flag says "Canon" in the field. No spaces at the end or anything silly. It used to work.
    Anyone experienced similar? Anyone have solutions?

    Hmm, interesting. Given your use of quotes I just tried "Canon" including the double quotes, but that made no difference either.
    The EXIF filter is the only rule on the smart album, and while the smart album is set for a single project, there are several hundred photos that should match in it. If I set the smart album to "Library" rather than the project, it still matches none...! Just in case there's some other rule burried away that just isn't displayed, I switched the smart album to "Match Any" rather than "All", and that too returns no photos.

  • The 'not member of any group' smart group stopped working

    Since upgradng to Lion I notice that the Smart Group in Address book which I set to:
    "Card - is not member of - any group"
    has stopped working.
    I used to find this very useful since I like all my contacts to be assigned to one group, and this helps me spot any I missed when adding new contacts. However it is now always empty, even after I created a new contact and did not assign it to any group.
    Is this a known bug?
    If not, how do I go about bringing it to the attention of Apple?

  • Smart Guides Randomly Not Working

    Hi,
    I've noticed in Illustrator CS4 (with all the updates) that Smart Guides does not seem to work on some files.
    I make a new file in CS4 and then they automatically seem to work.
    I have tried re-saving the file and turning on and off the Smart Guide settings and playing with the Control button.
    I attached a sample file where it's not working as a demo.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    They work just turn off snap to grid or snap to pixel.

  • Broadcom USB Smart Card reader not working

    After upgrading my Vista Business SP2 (32-bit) to Windows 7 Ultimate RC (32-bit) my Broadcom USB smart card reader does not work any longer (Dell Latitude E6400 with built in smart card reader).
    The newest available driver from dell support was already tested (Broadcom, driver date 09/23/2008, version 1.0.0.1, digitally signed WHQL, released by dell in March 09), but the device can not start (Error code 10) with Windows 7.
    With the Microsoft WUDF Driver (Usbccid, driver date 06/21/2006, version 6.1.7100.0) the device starts but whenever I insert my smart card an additional device is detected (other device - smart card) but no driver found - Error message is: The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28).
    What else can I try to get this reader working again (with vista sp2 the smart card reader was working fine with the broadcom driver)?

    I have also an USB card reader that works fine on XP PCs but Win7 does not recognise it, can msft make a sd reader driver that works pls.
    Hi
    Sorry, but the way the industry works is that Microsoft develops Windows and Hardware manufacturers develop drivers for their products. Microsoft does maintain a complete division (MSDN) that is dedicated to assisting hardware and software manufacturers in developing their products for compatibility with Windows.
    All of the drivers that are contained on the Windows installation disk and on Windows Update are placed there by the manufacturers of the devices. This is a service that Microsoft provides to help these manufacturers to distribute their drivers.
    What you can do.
    1. Check with the computer manufacturer for updated drivers for that device. This is your best source, since the computer manufacturer builds, tests, and sometimes develops their own, custom drivers to work with the hardware on their PCs.
    2. Try to determine the name and manufacturer of the device using Device Manager and MSInfo32. Once this information is found, try to find that manufacturers website and look for the latest compatible drivers.
    3. Check to see if there are any users forums on the PC manufacturers or device manufacturers websites. Ask there about any known issues with this particular hardware device or if the device is no longer supported.
    4. If the drivers are found but are only available for previous versions of Windows, install the drivers using the Windows Compatibility Mode. HOW TO: Install a Hardware Device Driver using Compatibility Mode
    Right now, we are in a unique situation since we are using an operating system that is still in the pre-release phase. Many hardware/software manufacturers will be ofrficially supporting their products for Windows 7 until after the General Availability date of October 22, 2009.
    Hope this helps.
    Thank You for using Windows 7

  • My smart cover is not working with the new iPad

    The smart cover for my iPad 2 won't work with the new iPad.  I have verified the toggle is enabled in settings.  Does anyone have a solution or is experiencing the same issue?  Thanks :)

    It's the polarity of the magnet in the older Apple Smart Covers (and many third-party cases and covers) that is causing the problem.  All you need to know about this situation is detailed at my blog post:

  • HP EliteBook 8560w internal smart card reader not working

    Uh! No!
    On the Elitebook 8560w, the SDCard connection points do not face up, they in fact, face down. Facing up the card does not go in at all. 
    Also...
    The SD MMC slot still does not work. I have tried every driver. I have tried putting a card in and running Windows Update. Nothing is working.
    What's up HP are you ever going to respond and fix this?

    What operating system is it? Are you sure you put the card in the correct way? [not trying to be mean here]

  • After Windows 10 upgrade Mic Conexant 20671 smart audio HD not working

    I upgraded to Windows 10 from Windows 7. After upgrade, the audio failed - both Recorder (Mic) as well as Player (speaker) where not working and device was not recongnized in Skype  I then got to know (after some internet searching) that Lenovo has released new driver for Windows 8.1 and 10. I downloaded the same (from lenovo site) and installed them in c:\Drivers\Audio . After the installation I followed the automatic installation. However it fails telling Device is not installed. I have also tried to upgrade the software from Device manager. Here it says all softwares are upto date. However mic device driver 10.0.10240.16384  - the date stamp is of today. Under the sound, video , game controller section in the Devce Manager- the device driver for Conexant 20671 is older. This device driver software is not getting upgraded, says all software are upto date. Any pointer to resolve the mic issue is welcome!  

    I am having the same problem. The path below is the one specified. http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/downloads/ds100832 After downloading the driver, which displays "Windows 8.1" even though I am using windows 10, the install fails saying the device is not installed. Please advise. Thanks. 

  • Smart Shape Buttons Not Working With Scalable HTML5 (in Captivate 7)

    Hey everyone,
    first of all: everything was fine with CP 6, but since we upgraded to CP 7, I have troubles with smart shape buttons (exported as scalable(!) HTML5)! This is incredibly annoying.
    When a project is exported as scalable HTML5, I cannot click smart shape buttons which I use quite often. I tried Chrome, Firefox, Safari, iOS, ...
    When exported as flash or non(!) scalable HTML5, everything works, but it looks horrible on Smartphones – so this is not a solution we can work with.
    I uploaded an examle:
    Captivate-File: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/340109/A1/Test_CP_Forum.cptx

    Scalable HTML5: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/340109/A1/Test_Scalable_HTML5/index.html
    We have customers waiting for projects to be finished and I really rely on clickable smart shapes!
    I kindly ask for a solution
    Georg

    I'm using a Mac (latest version).
    @devices: Android and iOS smartphones and tablets as well as Mac and Windows PCs.
    "Do you see this same issue on a blank project (With 2 or 3 Smart Shapes) ?"
    I'm not sure if I get you right, but the project I posted is nearly a blank project (created with CP7). So I think the answer is "yes".

  • Smart Brush Tool - Not working

    I can't use the smart brush tool (either for blue skies, whiten teeth etc.).  The following message comes up when I select the brush:  COULD NOT USE THE SMART BRUSH TOOL BECAUSE NO ADJUSTMENT WAS SELECTED.  Is this an installation issue?
    Note: when I select the brush, no menu pops up...nor does one appear in the top menu bar

    Try these steps:
    Quit PSE, then go to your username>library>preferences and delete:
    com.adobe.PhotoshopElements.plist (and the renamed copy)
    Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 Paths
    Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 Settings
    Now go to your hard drive>library>application support>adobe>Photoshop Elements>9.0>locale>en_US (or your location) and delete mediaDatabase.db3. (Note that you have 3 library folders: the one under your username where you deleted the prefs, one in System>library, and one at the top level of your hard drive. For this you want the last one.
    Repair permissions and relaunch the editor, but don't do anything till you see the icons reappear in the effects panel.

  • Smart Print icon not working in Bing Bar

    I have two Smart Print 2.1 icons; one in the Command bar and one in the Bing bar. I don't know why this is. However, the one in the Command bar works, but the one in the Bing bar doesn't.
    Any advice as to why this should be will be much appreciated.

    To clarify, are you wanting to remove the icon that is not functioning in the Bing Bar?  Or do you want to keep the one for Bing and remove the other one from the computer?  Here is a link to the latest version of the Smart print for Bing Bar.  I would uninstall both versions currently on the computer under Control Panel>> Programs and then use the link to download the latest version. I hope that this helps.
